First Pacific-Asia Workshop on Web Mining and Web-based Application 2008 May 20, 2008 May 21, 2008 Japan

http://www.iita-conference.org/wmwa/
The Web represents a key driving force for a large spectrum of applications in which users interact with or within companies, organizations, governmental agencies, and educational or collaborative environments. User preferences and expectations, together with usage, content, and structural patterns obtained from the Web, form the basis for intelligent, personalized, and business-optimal services. Key Web business metrics enabled by proper data collection and processing are essential to run an effective business or service. Enabling technologies include data mining, scalable data warehousing and preprocessing, sequence discovery, real time processing, document classification, user modeling and evaluation models. Recipient technologies that demand for user profiling and usage patterns include recommendation systems, Web analytics applications, content management systems, and fraud or intrusion detection systems.

The inherent and increasing heterogeneity of the Web has required Web-based applications to more effectively integrate a variety of types of data across multiple channels and from different sources. The development of techniques and architectures for more effective integration and mining of content, usage, and structure data from different sources is likely to lead to the next generation of more useful and more intelligent Web applications. The WMWA 2008 workshop aims to bring together practitioners and researchers from both academia and industry in order to foster the exchange of ideas and the dissemination of emerging solutions for intelligent Web-based applications and content mining.

All accepted paper will be included in proceedings if they have paid for publishing fee, which will be published by IEEE Computer Society .

NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT COMPUTING MODELS February 21, 2008 February 23, 2008 India

http://
THEME OF THE CONFERENCE
The National Conference on Intelligent Computing Models (NCICM-2008) focuses on building primitive artificial intelligent systems. Intelligent systems are usually characterized by their ability to adapt to dynamic situations in uncertain environments. Intelligent Computing has emerged as one of the most vivacious areas in the field of Information Technology. It is a branch of the study of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Intelligent Computing research aims to use learning, adaptive, or evolutionary computations to create programs that are, in some sense, intelligent. Intelligent Computing research models either explicitly rejects statistical methods (as is the case with fuzzy systems), or tacitly ignores statistics (as is the case with most neural network research). In contrast, machine learning research rejects non-statistical approaches to learning, adaptivity, and optimization. Intelligent Computing, sometimes known as Synthetic Intelligence, is further closely associated with soft computing, scruffy AI, connectionist systems and cybernetics
The conference aims to disseminate innovative ideas in the new and emerging technologies in Intelligent Computing Models. It brings together researchers, academicians, students and industrial experts under a roof too. The plenary session has been arranged in the frontier areas like Image Processing, Data
Mining, Mobile Computing and Soft Computing Technologies.

First Conference on Artificial General Intelligence March 1, 2008 March 3, 2008 USA

http://www.agi-08.org/
The field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) was initially directly aimed at the construction of ?thinking machines? ? that is, computer systems with human-like general intelligence. But this task proved very difficult, and so as steps in this direction, AI researchers focused on producing AI systems displaying intelligence regarding specific tasks in relatively narrow domains. In recent years, however, the situation has been changing. More and more researchers have recognized the necessity ? and feasibility ? of returning to the original goals of the field. Increasingly, there is a call for a transition from the current focus on highly specialized ?narrow AI? problem solving systems, back to confronting the more difficult issues of ?human level intelligence? and more broadly ?artificial general intelligence (AGI).?

Encouraged by the recent success of several smaller-scale AGI-related meetings, we have taken the initiative to facilitate the very first international conference on AGI. The AGI-08 conference will give AGI researchers the opportunity for presenting research results and exchanging ideas on topics of common interest. During the conference, we will also discuss the possibility of creating a new organization to promote and coordinate AGI research.

The conference is explicitly open to all the various techniques used in seeking to realize general intelligence ? for instance, symbolic, connectionist, evolutionary, robotic, mathematical, or integrative approaches (… or new approaches that the conference organizers have never heard of!). We are particularly interested in papers describing concrete, reasonably well-fleshed-out AGI projects ? meaning, research projects that

* are based on a coherent theory about “intelligence” as a whole
* involve a concrete engineering plan oriented toward implementing the relevant conception of general intelligence in a computer system
* have already produced some concrete results, either practical or theoretical

Agent-Directed Simulation Symposium April 14, 2008 April 17, 2008 Canada

http://www.eng.auburn.edu/SCS-TM/ADS-2008.htm
Currently, there exist many agent conferences, as well as agent-based (social) simulation conferences. However, there are not many simulation conferences where agent and simulation technology are together a central theme. It is therefore that the ADS symposium fills a gap in the agent community as well as the simulation community.

The purpose of the ADS symposium is to facilitate dissemination of the most recent advancements in the theory, methodology, application, and toolkits of agent-directed simulation. Agent-directed simulation is comprehensive in the integration of agent and simulation technology, by including models that use agents to develop domain-specific simulations (this is often referred to as agent-based simulation), and by also including the use of agent technology to develop simulation techniques and toolkits that are subsequently applied, either with or without agents. Hence, agent-directed simulation consists of three distinct, yet related areas that can be grouped under two categories as follows:

Simulation for Agents (agent simulation): simulation of agent systems in engineering, human and social dynamics, military applications etc.

Agents for Simulation: agent-supported simulation deals with the use of agents as a support facility to enable computer assistance in problem solving or enhancing cognitive capabilities; agent-based simulation focuses on the use of agents for the generation of model behavior in a simulation study.

Through the theme of agent-directed simulation, the symposium will bring together agent technologies, tools, toolkits, platforms, languages, methodologies, and applications in a pragmatic manner. In this symposium, established researchers, educators, and students are encouraged to come together and discuss the benefits of agent technology in their use and application for simulation. It is a way for people to discuss why and how they have used agent technology in their simulations, and describe the benefit of having done so.

The theme of ADS’08 is based on the observation of the following premises.

The growth of new advanced distributed computing standards along with the rapid rise of e-commerce are providing a new context that acts as a critical driver for the development of next generation systems. These standards revolve around service-oriented technologies, pervasive computing, web-services, Grid, autonomic computing, ambient intelligence etc. The supporting role that intelligent agents play in the development of such systems is becoming pervasive, and simulation plays a critical role in the analysis and design of such systems.

The use of emergent agent technologies at the organization, interaction (e.g., coordination, negotiation, communication) and agent levels (i.e. reasoning, autonomy) are expected to advance the state of the art in various application domains. However, modeling and testing complex agent systems that are based on such technologies is difficult. Using agent-supported simulation techniques for testing complex agent systems is up and coming field.

To facilitate bridging the gap between research and application, there is a need for tools, agent programming languages, and methodologies to analyze, design, and implement complex, non-trivial agent-based simulations. Existing agent-based simulation tools are still not mature enough to enable developing agents with varying degrees cognitive and reasoning capabilities.

ADS 2008 will provide a leading forum to bring together researchers and practitioners from diverse simulation societies within computer science, social sciences, engineering, business, education, human factors, and systems engineering. The involvement of various agent-directed simulation groups will enable the cross-fertilization of ideas and development of new perspectives by fostering novel advanced solutions, as well as enabling technologies for agent-directed simulation.

6th International Conference Formal Concept Analysis (ICFCA8) February 25, 2008 February 29, 2008 Canada

http://www.latece.uqam.ca/icfca08/
ICFCA’08, Universite du Quebec a Montreal (Canada), February 25-29 2008.

We call for scientific publications on theory and applications of Formal
Concept Analysis. Papers of up to sixteen pages may be submitted. All
submissions will be refereed, and the conference proceedings will be
published in the LNCS/LNAI series of Springer Verlag. Authors are requested
to follow the author instructions.

Formal Concept Analysis emerged in the 1980’s from attempts to restructure
lattice theory to promote better communication between lattice theorists
and potential users of lattice theory. Since then Formal Concept Analysis has
developed into a growing research field in its own right with a thriving
theoretical community and an increasing number of applications in information
and knowledge processing including visualization, data mining, analysis and
knowledge management.

The conference aims to unify theoretical and applied practitioners using
Formal Concept Analysis drawing from the fields of Mathematics, Computer and
Information Sciences, Software Engineering, Algorithmic Aspect, Linguistics,
and Knowledge representation. Other aspects are welcome.

ICFCA deals with the following topics

* Mathematics
* Computer and Information Sciences
* Software Engineering
* FCA theory
* Lattice Theory
* Data Mining
* Association Rules
* FCA-based Knowledge Representation
* Data Analysis
* Algorithmic
* Logics for/and FCA
* Lattice Drawing
* FCA and Software Engineering
* FCA Tools

The conference will be hosted at UQAM (Universite du Quebec a Montreal), Montreal, Canada.
